Back Cove

Did a couple of laps around the Back Cove, enjoying the warm sun and cool ocean breeze. Legs felt great. Had to concentrate on keeping the pace down, which is always a good sign. All systems go for the Vermont 100.

Speaking of which, looks like it'll be a scorching hot one for the race. Highs around 90 degrees, and I'm guessing humid as well. I typically do well in the heat, but running 100 miles in it will be a real test. Bring it on!

Loved the deer fly experiment (I'm sure I saw you on star trek in my youth, hiding behing the cardboad mountain with Dr Spock). Although I was a bit confused as to why you'd want to catch the buggers. If they stay away from your face do you care whether they come home with you.

Funny! I saw someone who had with fly paper covering the top of their hat. The deer fly only had to land once, and no further problems. Their hat was covered with dead deer flies so I think it did work. Good luck!
